After the derby of Manchester, between City and United, it’s time for the Red Devils to meet another tough opponent away from home, Aston Villa.
United so far is taking the 2nd spot with 24 points, 4 away from the first Chelsea, with a strange away record of W1 D5 L0. United in fact remains the only unbeaten team so far, but at what cost?
Five away draws add up to 10 points lost, as much as 3 losses. Obviously the team isn’t in its best shape but has to keep up with the leader.
The last away victory Manchester United achieved was a round ago against Stoke City with 2:1.
Aston Villa on the other hand are currently taking the 10th spot with 16 points and a home record of W3 D3 L0, which means unbeaten in 6 games. The team already met Chelsea here and finished 0:0.

The past two games on this stadium between these teams have ended 1:1 and 2:2, but if we look beyond that point we would see 6 consecutive wins since season 2002-3.
United remains unbeaten so far after 12 games, but is not looking convincing enough for most of us football punters to be backing them up in our bets. Especially in the way games where the team keeps on drawing the games and keeps on losing valuable points.
Villa suffers from injuries but the team is unbeaten at home, and has already tied Chelsea here and has proven to be a tough opponent. I think this game, just like the derby of Manchester will revolve around the draw, and only an individual mistake can tip the scales in either direction.
